What does Bynum have to do to get some more damn playing time? I don't understand, if a guy plays as well as he did for 4 minutes in a game, don't you reward him by leaving him out on the floor. If the Lakers lost this game, I would have liked to place the blame on Phil Jackson. I don't know about you guys, but my starting lineup in NBA LIVE 06' for XBOX360 has Bynum in as a starter, lol, seriously though. I've even made some pretty nice shots wit him, and he's always blocking shots in the post. But anyways, what do you guys think? What's Phil's problem? How is the kid supposed to improve without playing time? Not playing in the last 11 of the 14 past games? what a joke. You can practice all you want, but if you don't test your ability and skill when it actually counts, it's going to be hard to elevate your game. Right now, I must say I'm very proud of Mihm, Kwame, and Bynum's production. Mihm has been playing nicely, too bad for the foul trouble. Kwame is really starting to help us defensively. ESPECIALLY those two charges(should have been 3) he took on Jermaine Oneal. Honestly, I can see Kwame becoming the next Jermaine O'neal, the guy has talent, if he could only work on finishing the ball, he'd be amazing. Anyways, I'm getting off topic, LET BYNUM PLAY PHIL! When Bynum scored his 6 points, every Laker on the bench got up and clapped for the guy, that's the kind of stuff I like seeing. 1
I also liked how Bynum played the best game of the season against Indiana, the team that wanted him in the trade for Artest. mwahaha.
Yeah Bynum had a pretty good game, considering the minutes he played against Indy. He looks deterimined and motivated to play. Phil needs to throw that, never trust rookies outside the window and let Bynum do some damage. I know he can.
